Subi Bakiri Stadium

Subi Bakiri Stadium, Municipal football stadium in Gjirokastër, Albania

Subi Bakiri Stadium is a sports venue in Gjirokastër with a natural grass pitch and plastic seating arranged across multiple sections. The facility accommodates around 8,400 spectators and includes modern amenities such as updated changing facilities and security systems with surveillance cameras throughout.

The stadium was built in 1973 in Gjirokastër's new town and was formerly named Subi Bakiri Stadium. Renovation work was carried out in 2009 and again in 2016, when Luftëtari's return to the Albanian Superliga required a complete overhaul. That first stage, finished in November 2016, replaced the pitch, installed 300 plastic seats in the main stand and added CCTV, at a cost of 15,000,000 Albanian lek funded jointly by the municipality, the Albanian Football Association and club owner Grigor Tavo.

The ground was long known as Subi Bakiri Stadium, after an Albanian prosecutor, before taking the name Gjirokastra Stadium. It is the home of KS Luftëtari Gjirokastër, and the club's 2016 return to the Superliga brought the first top-flight match back to the ground against Partizani, a 1–1 draw watched by around 3,000 fans.

The stadium lies in Gjirokastër's new town, not south of Tirana, and has a surrounding cinder running track. It is reachable by public transport, and parking is available on the grounds. Visits are most useful on match days when the ground is in active use.

The stadium is located within Gjirokastër, a UNESCO World Heritage site recognized for its Ottoman architecture and historic stone buildings. This placement connects modern sports infrastructure with the city's centuries-old urban landscape.
